The beginnings of the agricultural and ·woodland valuation in Slovenia date back to the time of the Austro-Hungarian state when the cadastral classification of land was established. After 1953, the conditions of land management and taxation in Slovenia changed. Expert groups and individuals pr7epared proposals of land valuation based on site productivity and the economics of the land management. With the publishing of the rules for soil assessment in 1984, the first professional conditions/or a n:ew land evaluation were established. The land-rating measures land .site productivity based on natural factors, including soil characteristics, climate, relief, and special impacts. The basic unit of administering land rating is the equal land-rating area. The establishment and upgradi.ng took place over several years in the entire territory of Slovenia. The uniform layer of the equal land-rating area of the whole state is administered by the Surveying and Mapping Authority based on the proposal of the individual or ex officio. The uniform layer of equal land-rating area and database of land-rating values are public and used for land valuation purposes· and for land management measures [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Establishing a multi-purpose cadastre, especially in terms of upgrading cadastral contents with the various spatial dttta, such as land use, is a challenge in Slovenia and internationally. Land use strongly affects spatial planning, development, and managmunr, so high-quality spatial integration of the land cadastre with spatial plans data is crucial for effective land management. In the first part of the article, wr rrviewed the literature and documents that prescribe guitk/ines for the development of the land cadastrt; we use there guitklines as a basis for developing a proposed method of linking and harmonising the data of the land cadastre with the spatial plan data. Land use is specified in spatial plans, and we linked it to the graphical and attribute land cadastre data layer. \~tested the method in Prekmurje with a high-quality cadastre. Selected study areas are the municipalities of Kmmarovci and Nemcavci. As a result, we presented land use data directly in the land cadastre database, which requires simultaneous land me and cadastre maintenance. Based on the results for selected cadastral municipalitin, wr critically evaluated the proposed method. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper presents the process of real estate reallocation as a mass cadastral subdivision process of agrarian communities’ customary rights. The agricultural communities have existed for centuries and have been jointly owning and using the common land. Such gatherings were developed mainly due to the unique requirements deriving from land use and relief characteristics, such as joint forest management on mountain slopes. The main objective of this research has been to analyse the process of real estate subdivision, which has its legal background in Slovenian legislation. In this paper, the process of cadastral subdivision of land owned by agricultural communities is presented as a mass cadastral land subdivision process: from preparatory work to the new geometric structure of the common land. The cadastral, organisational, and engineering role of the chartered surveying engineer and the surveying company is examined. An aim of the paper is, inter alia, to develop a conceptual model of the process that will serve as a basis for optimisation, for a more just and more efficient distribution of assets among community members. The course of the individual steps of the community established land subdivision is shown with unified modelling language (UML) activity diagrams. As a case study, we have considered the subdivision of the property of the agricultural community of Zgornja Sorica in Slovenia. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper presents classification methods that enable the division of space into homogeneous areas that combine the spatial characteristics with influence on land use and changes thereof. It was determined that the existing methods do not always include the criteria needed for the aggregation of spatial units into homogeneous groups. The results of the analysis showed that the identified homogenous groups do not fully capture the spatial complexity and diversity important for land use change analyses. For this reason, a new approach to the classification of spatial units based on the unsupervised classification of digital images was proposed. The methodology includes the selection of appropriate indicators, that consider land use more comprehensively and thus enable better classification results. The use of the unsupervised classification method for prevailing land use typology has been tested in Slovenia. At the municipal level, seven types of prevailing land use were identified.

The Land Cadastre Representation (ZKP) is a graphic representation of all parcels and parcel numbers in Slovenia. By definition, this is the image of the shape and position of the parcels. The positional precision of the ZKP is highly variable, in some areas even very poor. The Land Cadastre Plan (ZKN) is made on the basis of high quality data obtained in the processes of maintaining the land cadastre and solves the problems with positional precision. This paper presents the data sources that produce the ZKN, the ZKN's method for producing various types of data sources, the quality of the product, the way of maintaining the ZKN, as well as the practical accessibility and possibility of wider use of the ZKN.
